There are two college entrance exams that are often taken by students, Exam A and Exam B. The composite score on Exam A is appro

elena55 [62]

Answer:

B.The score on Exam A is better, because the percentile for the Exam A score is higher.

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this problem, we have that:

Two exams. The exam that you did score better is the one in which you had a higher zscore.

The composite score on Exam A is approximately normally distributed with mean 20.1 and standard deviation 5.1.

This means that $\mu = 20.1, \sigma = 5.1$ .

You scored 24 on Exam A. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{24 - 20.1}{5.1}$

$Z = 0.76$

The composite score on Exam B is approximately normally distributed with mean 1031 and standard deviation 215.

This means that $\mu = 1031, \sigma = 215$ .

You scored 1167 on Exam B, s:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{1167 - 1031}{215}$

$Z = 0.632$

You had a better Z-score on exam A, so you did better on that exam.

The correct answer is:

B.The score on Exam A is better, because the percentile for the Exam A score is higher.

There are 12 people in a class. 10 are randomly chosen. How many possible combinations are there?

Mazyrski [523]

long way

12 x 11 x 10 x 9 x 8 x 7 x6 x5 x4 x3x2/ 10x9x8x7x6x5x4x3x2x

but you can shorten that by crossing out identical numbers so you get 12 x 11

12 x 11 = 132 combinations
